Since people keep complaining about how the website looks, why not contribute a bit in two ways?
EDIT: Personally I don't mind the clean look, but happy to help if anything is needed...
Firstly, I was thinking we can take a bit out of the austerity with a bit of fan art? I'm sure a lot of people in here are creative professionals or aspiring artists, or just to-the-core gamers and hardware enthusiasts. It can even consist of a showcase of people's rigs, not to show off but a more centralized showcase of people's creativity.
Second, to make it more interesting for everybody, I suggest getting either a "featured" banner right above the forums menu about 100px tall, or heck even make it the Anandtech banner background as a "featured" showcase every week/month depending on participation?
In light of recent Ryzen marketing, i took a bit of time today to quickly do a bit of 3D render fan art myself inspired by the Wraith Spire cooler, to explain what I'm referring to and hopefully to kickstart something, it's not much of it but it's a start, and it only took a couple of hours If you make this forum, I'll keep posting until more people get motivated or at least interested, I enjoy these things.
P.S. If anyone wants these in up to 8K format just PM me...
P.S. 2: I was not commissioned to create these, nor do I own copyright of the logos, it's just fan art.
